What’s in my bag?

Happy weekend, loves! How are you spending your weekend? I started my week by seeing a movie with my boyfriend and my sister. I’ve been persuading my boyfriend for over a week now to see Bride for Rent. Yup, that movie with Kim Chiu and Xian Lim in it. I heard it has grossed Php100M in just four days!

 

It’s a really great feel-good movie. I love Kim Chiu’s quirkiness in the movie: demure na jologs. I like her better in such roles, much like her role in Bakit Di Ka Crush ng Crush Mo. I find her really funny and super effective.  Plus, I love the outfits she wore in the movie and in her previous telenova. Lakas maka-demure. In the auditions scenes in the movie, she wore this mejo grunge attire: muscle tee, denim cut-offs, Doc Marten’s boots, and a brown knapsack, where she stores her paninda for her raket.

 

When I use a bag, I want it to contain all my belongings, too. (Nice transition, huh? LOL) To be honest, I don’t really buy bags on a regular basis. The last time I bought a bag for myself was last year during my trip in Hong Kong, where I bought a Santa Roberta tote, which was on sale, so I was able to afford it.  I always borrow bags from my mom and my sister, Bianca. But this Christmas, my sister gave me a Charles and Keith bag! Yeah, I’m not a bag person, but I’m thankful she did.

This bag reminds me of a Kate Spade tote I saw a few weeks back. A Kate Spade dupe, my bag is. Hihi.

 

I have a thing for tote bags because they’re able to pack a lot of things inside. So, here are the contents of my trusty bag.

Basically, my bag contains my iPad and my phone, my bag organizer, and my kikay kit!

I super love my bag organizer, which is a gift from my boyfriend’s sister. I tend to dump everything inside my bag, so this bag organizer helps me organize my things inside my bag and save space. Definitely heaven-sent!

 

Another important thing I carry in my bag is my makeup kit. I make sure that I have the basics: powder, eyeliner, mascara, lipsticks, lip tint, and cologne. I prefer baby cologne over perfume because they’re light and pleasant.

 

I don’t have a wallet, just a coin purse. I do own a wallet, though, which is a gift from my boyfriend a few years back. I find it too bulky, so I just carry a coin purse and my card wallet (which stores all my cards) with me all the time.

 

I always bring my powerbank (11200 mAh) with me since I use my phone a lot. I washified it using Hello Kitty washi tapes from Paper Blush.

 

Why this post all of a sudden? I came across this promo from Suy Bags, a local brand. I hope this qualifies as an entry!

Beauty Blogger Wannabe

Sunday is family day in our household. We usually spend Sundays hearing mass and a family lunch at the mall. Today, we weren’t able to hear mass. We fetched a few groceries for New Year’s Eve, and boy were the lines craaaaazy! How about you? How do you spend your Sundays?

Anyway! I’m a big fan of beauty bloggers and other “lifestyle bloggers,” like Divine Lee, Vern and Verniece Enciso, and, of course, Temptalia! I’m always amazed with the things they do and what-nots. I love reading their reviews on make-up and make-up tutorials. I find ‘em quite interesting since I’m a make-up junkie-wannabe. Hihi.

So now, I’ll be sharing with you the contents of my make-up kit!

Finess Shine-Free Pearlized Oil Control Sheet | Watson’s
Revlon Photoready Powder | Target 
Agraria Hand & Body Lotion (Lemon Verbena)
Marionnaud N32 Blush Brush | Watson’s 
Etude House Lash Perm Eye-long Mascara | Etude House 
Love & Beauty Brow Kit | Forever21 
The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Stain | The Body Shop 
Heroine Make Impact Liquid Eyeliner | Sasa in Hong Kong 
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream (Milan) | Target 
Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet (L’Exuberante) | Harvey Nichols in Hong Kong 
The Body Shop Born Lippy (Strawberry) | The Body Shop 
Maybelline Cheeky Glow | BDJ Box 
LUSH Liquid Lipstick (Decisive) | Lush Cosmetics

You’d probably notice that I carry a lot of lip products! Lip products are my downfall, I must say. I cannot live without a lip balm in my purse! Also, I carry at least 3 colors of lipstick: red, pink, and nude. This way, I can update my look anytime.  As of the moment, my favorites are LUSH’s liquid lipstick (red), Chanel’s (pink), and NYX’s (nude). I “rotate” my lippies, so I get to use all of them.

I’m in love with my *new* sparkly make-up kit!! It’s actually a bag which I got together with my POSH Pocket Shoes. Since I don’t really “fold” my foldable shoes, I’m using the bag as my make-up kit.

How about you? What’s in your make-up kit? What are you favorite products?

Love,
Dianne
